People ask all the time about the best headphones. And I have plenty of suggestions, with considerations for ANC, sound and comfort, but included somewhere in there is always mention of headphones from Sony. For the last few years, the answer has been the Sony WH-1000XM4. Now it's undeniably these new Sony WH-1000XM5.

Predictably, and still kind of amazingly, these headphones are more comfortable, sound better and have an improved feature set over the 1000XM4. If you really want the previous generation, those headphones are still available for the same retail price of $349.99, but the new headphones, for $399.99, are easily worth their extra $50.
